You are not fooling anyone with your position that women are equal to men in combat. If they were don’t you think that some army would have discovered this in the last 5000 yrs. of recorded history? There has never been a time when a military unit of women has trained to the same standards as men and gone into combat against men. I am a combat veteran and know more that you and the feminists pushing this idea what it takes. Most combat duty doesn’t even involve contact with the enemy. There is a saying in the military for this: combat duty is 9/10th’s waiting for the other 1/10th to happen. When the women can show that they are capable of lifting and carrying boxes of bullets, hand grenades and artillery shells all day and night like combat duties require, or lifting 50 lb. bags of sand to fortify bunkers, or push out vehicles stuck in the mud and sand and other backbreaking tasks then maybe they will have some measure of credibility. How about trying this: Make a combat unit of just females and send them into combat to fight against these savage terrorists on their own with no men to protect them and only send female reinforcements when they need them. They will be slaughtered and then there will be no talk of women in combat ever again. This is the only way to be able to tell if women in combat are as capable as men. A few women spread out in an overwhelming male unit will prove nothing. The male marines you interviewed praising the women are only doing so because they have been ordered not to speak the truth. Interview them again after they are discharged and you will get their true opinions. This is exactly what happened when a few women made it thru the initial navy seal training a few yrs. ago.
